VILLAGE COMMITTEE 7 Report of the Village Committee We began work on the fifteenth of May, at which time we hired Mr. Scammon for the sea- son. The first undertaking was to get the cemetery ready for Memorial Day. A new fence, 96 feet long, was built next to the pro- perty of the Episcopal Church. All the slabs in the yard were righted and seven broken ones were repaired. In the rear of the Cem- etery a small tool house for keeping our tools under cover was made. On the Shore Path, in front of the Hardy cottage, we built 26 feet of wall averaging 4 feet in height. The path from the Reading Room to Balance Rock, considerably washed out during the winter, was repaired. The old wooden walk along the Musgrave estate was removed for 511 feet and rebuilt with clay and gravel. An extra man was employed for fifteen days. Otherwise, Mr. Scammon has done all the work. Our regular work consists of caring for the Shore Path and all paths leading to it from the 8 VILLAGE COMMITTEE Main Central wharf to Mrs. Kennedy's, the Town lot next the shore, the Cemetery lot, and the Dr. Bunker property on Cottage Street. Respectfully submitted, ANNIE C. KANE, Chairman. PARKS COMMITTEE 9 Report of Committee on Parks During the past winter, the skating pond was flooded ten different times and this put it in perfect condition for skating which was enjoyed by the children and also by the older people. The firemen very kindly consented to do this work. A larger pipe line is needed for flooding the pond. This could be established at a cost of $400.00. Woodbury Park has been cared for as usual by Mr. Stalford, and the dead limbs cut from trees and carried away. Glen Mary Park has been mowed but re- quires further work done on it. Respectfully submitted, MILTON W. STRATTON, Chairman. 10 PUBLICITY COMMITTEE Report of the Committee on Publicity During the summer, appeals for funds were printed and mailed at a cost of $34.00, pri- vately paid for. An advertisement was in- serted in the Bar Harbor "TIMES" in regard to keeping rubbish from picnic grounds. This also was privately paid for. The TIMES kindly printed several short articles on the work of the V. I. A., the sug- gestions having been made in writing but carried out by Miss Gurnee and Mr. Rowe!l. It would seem necessary to bring steady pressure to bear on public opinion in order to keep signs from the highways and island; the signs being SO damaging to the great asset of Mt. Desert, its natural beauty. A good and attractive signboard where notices could be placed would be an addition to the town and would prevent some indis- criminate advertisment on trees and tele- graph poles. Respectfully submitted, C. S. BAKER, Chairman. PATH COMMITTEE 11 Report of the Path Committee The usual improvement and repair of the Bar Harbor trails was commenced by the Committee on April 17 last, the purpose being to have everything in the best possible con- dition for the walking season. The paths now extend through the Bar Harbor district in every direction and comprise over one hundred and twenty-five miles. The winter was not a severe one and the trails were found to be in a fairly satisfactory condition, not greatly encumbered by fallen trees or damaged by washouts. It is, however, a matter of great regret that a large number of signs are found missing every year. These appear to have been deliberately pulled down, shot away, or carried off. Unless paths are properly marked, the use of them is not only difficult but even a possible source of danger; and the maintenance of signs is of .great im- portance to the community. Much money has been expended upon these trails for the benefit of the whole public and the wanton destruction is of such grave concern that the Selectmen have 12 PATH COMMITTEE made such action a punishable misdemeanor. For the upkeep and improvement of the system of paths six hundred dollars has been generously contributed by the following zeal- ous supporters of the work: Dr. Robert Abbe, Dr. and Mrs. Joseph Blake, Miss Agnes Miles Carpenter, Miss Mary P. Coles, Thomas de- Witt Cuyler, Mrs. Max Farrand, Mrs. Roger Gilman, Hon. George L. Ingraham, Mrs. John Innes Kane, Mrs. John S. Kennedy, Philip Livingston, Mrs. John Markoe, Barring- ton Moore, F. Maurice Newton, Courtlandt Palmer, George S. Robbins, Mrs. Herbert L. Satterlee, Mrs. Ernest Schelling, Arthur C. Train, Frederick W. Vanderbilt, and the Chairman. The season's work carried on by the Com- mittee may be stated as follows; During April, the trails of Kebo Mountain, Harden Road and Farm, Toll House, Bracken, Green Mountain, Gorge and North Ridge were cleared of brush; pointers were replaced and cairns erected. In May, brush was cleared from the trails of Great Hill, Duck Brook, Break- neck, Half Moon, Witch's Hole, McFarland's, Curran and Aunt Betty's Pond, from the trail around the foot of Eagle Lake to Bubble Pond, and along the west side to Boyd Road. Steps PARTH COMMITTEE 13 were built over the Toboggan Slide. In June, this work was carried on in the Southwest Valley trail and fallen trees were also removed. Fawn Pond path was cleared and pointers restored, the South Ridge trail of Green was clearned and cairns erected. This kind of work characterized the summer's endeavor; clearing away brush, mowing, re- moving fallen trees, replacing rock steps that had been washed away by storms, building cairns, renewing pointers, and setting up signs. In the latter part of the summer, it was found advisable to employ at times an extra man or two extra men for this work. Much attention was given to the Cadillac Cliff trail, as this is a region of remarkable geological interest over which there has been lately some cutting for timber. Steps in the descent were replaced, twenty new pointers put in place, fallen trees cut out, and debris from the tree-cutting burned as it was a menace. The trail from Schooner Head Road to the Beehive was also put into shape after much labor. It may be stated for the Committee that the present season from April 17th to date consisted of 143 working days given over to the clearing of trails, repairing bridges, burning brush, 14 PARK COMMITTEE doing necessary mowing, the removal of twenty-two large trees, the putting in place of one hundred and sixty-eight stepping-stones, restoring seventy-nine pointers and thirteen signs, and erecting twenty-six stone cairns. ROADSIDES AND ROADS COMMITTEE 15 Roadsides and Roads Under the direction of Hon. L. P. Carter and with the co-operation of Mr. J. K. Preble and Mr. Lawrence Emery, great improvements have been carried out over certain roads within the Town District that now include some seventy-seven miles and are as follows; The Schooner Head Road from the Bruno residence to Dorr's Corner, and including 1,200 feet in its upper part, was made over and given a foundation of crushed stone with a gravel top at a cost of about $8,000. A strip of Eagle Lake Road was treated in like manner for a distance of 2,100 feet, with the removal of a ledge of rock near the lake and a widening of the road at Cross Street, the substitution of a gravel path for the unsafe board walk, the outlay being $5,700. Eden Street was thorough- ly improved for a distance of three-quarters of a mile from High Brook Road to the residence of Mr. Ernesto Fabbri, at a cost of $15,000. The Otter Creek Road for a distance of 2,200 feet was done over and repaired with crushed stone, the Town's share of the expense being 16 ROADSIDES AND ROADS COMMITTEE $1,732. The road from the Bridge is a state road but its repairs are borne by the Town. This has been kept in admirable condition by Mr. D. W. Brewer and Mr. Millard Hamor at an expenditure of $30,452. The work has been performed with economy and has given satisfaction to tax-payers and the general public. The Committee wish, in conclusion, to ex- press to the Town Board its appreciation for the uniform courtesey it has received and for the evident wish of the Board to co-operate in every way with the work of the Bar Harbor Village Improvement Association. All of which is respectfully submitted, FREDERIC DELANO WEEKES Chairman, Path Committee. Sept. 14, 1922. SANITARY COMMITTEE 17 Report of the Sanitary Committee During the ten years or SO that your Sani- tary Committee has been serving, its work has been less and less onerous and is now one of vigilance rather than of correcting abuses. This is due to the efficiency of its past work, but perhaps more to the appointment of a Health Officer of the town, Mr. Wadleigh, whose thoroughness, fearlessness, and intelli- gent administration have continued those measures which have safeguarded our commun- ity. The epidemics of typhoid, diphtheria, sum- mer complaints and types of disease incident to bad sanitation have almost wholly dis- appeared. A fertile source of trouble used to be the milk supply. You know how your Vigilant Committee, Dr. Gildersleeve, Mr. Morris, Dr. Morrison and others followed up this trail until now the wholesomeness of the milk supply rivals that of the finest inspected cities. This work has been taken over by Mr. Wadleigh, who has constantly inspected the 18 SANITARY COMMITTEE milk served from the many herds on the is- land farms, and taken samples from every dealer at intervals, unknown to them, and received a test of purity by analysis at our Scientific Hospital Laboratory. Of these a record is kept at his office for yearly com- parison of each milk producer. These are open to the inspection of anyone. I haver carefully gone over these for three years, and find a progressive improvement, with only two back-slidings from distant small farms. These have been immediately notified, ad- vised, and aided to make improvements, which they have gladly done; otherwise they would be forbidden to sell milk. Every cow on the farms is tested annually for tuberculosis. Two years ago, two fine cows were found to respond to the test and were killed; the farmers being repaid by the state. Last year, not a tubercular cow was found among all the herds. This October, the test has not yet been made. There are no known cases of tuberculosis among the people of our community, a rather remarkable fact, which corroborates the gen- eral demonstration throughout our country that consumption is being rapidly conquered SANITARY COMMITTEE 19 as one of the contagious diseases, by stringent laws and the wide dissemination of facts about the great white plague. The extraordinary diminution of the pest of flies, due the the absence of horses, has largely aided. Also of late in Bar Harbor diphtheria and typhoid are things of the past. The only suggestion of an epidemic of any kind has been a rather widely spread series of cases of scarlet fever, throughout the state and elsewhere. It has been SO mild and free from any fatalities that the few children taken have scarcely seemed sick; but the five cases here have been quarantined for the usual thirty days-and no others have occurred. The statistics of local deaths for three years are interesting as showing a preponderance of old people from 75 years on. The average of infant and all other mor- tality gives a local age average as about 47 years as against the usual life expectation of Insurance Companies of 30 and 40 years-which speaks well for the salubriousness of our fine Maine climate as well as for the benefits of sanitation, as formerly SO many children were carried off by diseases now preventable. Last month, your Committee spoke of a case of death of a fine young boy in town from 20 SANITARY COMMITTEE lock-jaw, due to a toy pistol wound in his hand. This was a rare occurrence and was one of eight cases from this cause in this state this year. The State inspector found that the wads made of felt containing impure horsehair were the cause. Manufacturers supplying these were ordered to suspend business and to ini- tiate a sterilization of the ingredients of the wad material. This will prevent lock-jaw following acci- dents probably better than a law against the use of toy pistols. Respectfully submitted, ROBERT ABBE Chairman. CHARTER 21 CHARTER LAWS OF 1891.
